Michel Gondry is a visionary director of feature films, highly regarded commercials, and award-winning music videos. He has an amazing imagination, doesnâ€™t limit himself to a single creative outlet, and often surprising himself with his own extraordinary ideas. He embraces each endeavor with the same creative flourish and is always excited about entertaining his audience with his latest idea or dream.

Gondry got his start while studying graphics at a French art school when he began directing videos for the band Oui Oui, for which he played drums. The clipâ€™s success attracted other local bands, and it wasnâ€™t long before he was working internationally. In 1993 Gondry met pop singer Bjork, commencing one of his longest and most successful professional creative relationships. Since then, heâ€™s collaborated with a wide-ranging group of artists that include The White Stripes, The Rolling Stones, Beck, Daft Punk, Chemical Brothers, Foo Fighters, Lenny Kravitz, Sheryl Crow, Cibo Matto, Kylie Minogue, The Willowz, The Polyphonic Spree, Steriogram, Gary Jules and most recently, Dave Chappelle and Kanye West.
